Disorders of blood pressure regulation-role of catecholamine biosynthesis, release, and metabolism.

Current hypertension reports - 1 Feb 2012

Currie Gemma, Freel E Marie, Perry Colin G, Dominiczak Anna F

Abstract excerpt

Catecholamines (epinephrine and norepinephrine) are synthesised and produced by the adrenal medulla and postganglionic nerve fibres of the sympathetic nervous system. It is known that essential hypertension has a significant neurogenic component, with the rise in blood pressure mediated at least in part by overactivity of the sympathetic nervous system. Moreover, novel therapeutic strategies aimed at reducing...
